Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Unified governments, where the executive and the legislature are controlled by the same party, are more likely to engage in broad delegation because there is greater agreement on policy goals, reducing the risks associated with delegation. In divided governments, where control is split, there is more likely to be conflict and mistrust, leading to less delegation.
